if you donwloaded the 2gb patch then its already installed, when u purchase it off origin it either activates or they give u a code to activate, you may need to log back out and then log back in for it to actually register, I had to do that to get it to work.

[mickey17]

well they didnt give me a code but at the end of a match i see a set of guns and what i have to do to unlock them but i still cant play the maps.. they say i need to purchase the expansion pack

[Elyon]

Did you log out and log back into your account? I had that same problem and that solved it.

[mickey17]
